Gezabel Posted January 22, 2005 Posted January 22, 2005 Not sure if this is allowed but doing it anyway Most of you know I have four sons, think I have mentioned that my third son and heir was statmented at the age of 7yrs and through sheer grit and determination he struggled his way through school. I spent years boosting his confidence when he was continually put down and I just want to say - this is him, came home like this last night and no he was not going to a fancy dress party! Quote

Gezabel Posted January 22, 2005 Author Posted January 22, 2005 Well if you feel old I feel ancient!! I look at the pic and it could just be any policeman but then I think it's my baby!! It's very strange having police gear around the house and reflective jacket hanging with all the normal outdoor gear!! Quote

Beau Posted January 23, 2005 Posted January 23, 2005 That's great Geraldine. What a relief it must be to see your children turn into adults you can be proud of. Quote
Gezabel Posted January 23, 2005 Author Posted January 23, 2005 Thought you might like to see this! As you can see it is a long held ambition. The pic was in the local paper when he was guest of honour at police headquarters after writing a letter addressed to "The most important policeman" and asking if he could "be a policeman for the day or just half a day!" He 'arrested' the reporter and got the giggles when he realised he had no keys for the handcuffs!! (well he was only 6 at the time!) Quote
